    I've finally gotten around to updating my system to a current kernel
(supped earlier today).  However, when I tried using this kernel, the
modload for my libafs.o failed with the error "undefined symbol
_spllower referenced in text segment".  Is there a patch to re-implement
the spllower command or a newer libafs that does not require this
function?

    Also, I've noticed that some of the functions in the afs libraries
seem to have some problems.  I found this in trying to compile the CMU
kerberized login program on my system.  The functions that are used for
authentication forwarding seem to be broken.  For both login and the
kerberized ftp, when the libafsauth function "setpag" is called, it
seems to be opening a 4GB ticket file on my machine.  On the call of
another function (I honestly can't remember the name, it's the one that
should actually start writing the ticket to the file), it actually tries
to WRITE a 4GB file, which needless to say fills whatever partition I
try to write my ticket to.

    I assume this file shouldn't be 4GB, is this a known bug, and what
(if anything) can I do to get around it?

    Thanks in advance.
